About this ebook
Easter Island has captivated the worlds imagination since its discovery in 1722. This enthralling book deals with the now famous bird cult and the customs and beliefs of the islanders who lived on Rapa Nui. This Unusual book will appeal greatly to all who have a fascination for cultures so different and so nearly lost. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
